First of all..... this is not another look at me post! There is nothing on my profile worth seeing... a couple of pics and no text

What im having a problem with is the "about me" part. Im never been very good with words and hate writing about myself.

I would like to know what catches peoples attention when reading profiles (and yes, i know there are so many who dont). What intruiges you? What makes you think maybe/never in a million years?

Thanks

You have been on the site over 3 years. Surely you have had plenty of time to research profile advice.

Have you ever had anything in your “about me” section or has it always been “update coming soon”?

If you did have something written there previously, what sort of thing did you have written there?

Well there’s lots of profile advice out there on “search” - why not have a go and then we can comment. We often so this at work, drafts get formulated then improved

pics for starters take better pics dressed even try and make best of what you've got .........confidence is the key so describe yourself in a confident way otherwise why would they consider you over the 100,000 others ,good luck

Not sure it matters what you write, 90% of people don't bother reading it anyway, or if they do, they think it doesn't apply to them because they are so special...lol

But if you want to attract the 10%, it’s worth the effort...

My advice is to use no more than 10,000 words on your profile text.

I picked a theme for mine, tried to inject some humour in it.

Humour is subjective, so it puts people off as much as it attracts them.. but at least its different.

You're welcome to browse and borrow ideas.. as I have 100 more queued up.. but don't steal.. I am a terrorist after all

If you have to ask others what to write.. it's not you on that page at the bottom of your profile.. it's an impression you're trying to put across. Experienced swingers can tell fact from fiction and are able to read between the lines.

You're best of being very honest about the kind of person you are, the kind of things you want to try and the kind of people you want to try them with.

Sincerity and honesty are attractive qualities to many. They can also show off confidence and humility at the same time.. occasionally.

If you can't find anything to say about yourself then unfortunately it smacks of low confidence, and most people will also see that a mile off. People will generally be attracted to confident but not over cocky guys.

You have verifications so sell yourself to open market a bit more.

Just read your new profile, personally I wouldn't tell people your married, that's your personal life and 90% of people won't touch you with a barge pole. If you get in a conversation with someone, and the question arises then be honest and "yes I'm married".

Just an observation and probably ill advised advice.

Good luck.

I wouldn't encourage anymore dishonesty. He's lying to his wife but he's being fabhonest.

Your profile says you are bi, but in the text you say you are orally bi in the right circumstances.

Sounds less like bi, and more likw bi curious to me...
